UPDATE: All but one school in Portage has power

Angling Road Elementary is the only building in Portage Public Schools currently without electrical service, district spokesman Tom Vance said.

That significantly increases the chances that Portage will have classes on Wednesday, with the possible exception of Angling, Vance said.

"If I was a betting person, it seems likely Angling Road would not have school but the rest of the district will be open," Vance said.

But he said he could also imagine "all kinds of scenarios where that might not be true," such as some buildings losing electrical service again because of falling trees and newly downed lines.

Right now, Portage officials say a final decision on whether to have school Wednesday will be made in the morning.

Like
most districts in the area, Portage canceled classes Monday and today
because of widespread power outages caused by this week's ice storm. Earlier today, Portage had seven schools without heat or electricity.
